[Mr. Mojo]

A Salinas man was charged with four felony counts after being found with two homemade bombs in his vehicle at a traffic stop in Brea on Tuesday night, authorities said.

Saleh Ali, 47, was charged Thursday with intent to unlawfully make a destructive device, two counts of possession of a destructive device, and the sale and transportation of a destructive device, the Orange County District Attorney’s Office announced Friday.

Brea Police Department officers pulled Ali over for having expired registration at a traffic stop in the area of South Orange Ave and Imperial Highway. Police say they found the two bombs when they checked his black Toyota Corolla.

The DA’s office described the bombs as “improvised explosive devices,” and said they were “containers covered in shrapnel.”

The devices were taken by an Orange County sheriff’s bomb squad and Ali was arrested and put in Orange County Jail. Police said Thursday his bail was set at $500,000.

If convicted as charged, Ali will receive a maximum sentence of 10 years in state prison.

He is due in court for a pre-trial hearing on Friday, Sept. 28.

Saleh Ali

Well, at least they caught him.

But now? He’s a Taxpayer Problem for the next DECADE, if not more.

DEPORT! DEPORT! DEPORT!

[G Larry]

They must have had him under surveillance.

Doubt they were in plain view.

[ifinnegan]

What about fed terrorism charges?

[Jonx6]

Nothing to see here. Move along.

[ryderann]

Wouldn’t bother me a bit if he was disappeared.

[mewzilla]

Not too many articles on this.

And none stating whether or not the perp is a citizen.

[Migraine]

That’s what I was thinking — either under surveillance, or a tip, or both.

[BenLurkin]

Saw “Salinas man” and expected he’d be Mexican......

[Buckeye McFrog]

Not national news WHY, exactly?

No room on the front page with all the sketchy accusations against Kavanaugh?

Saw “2 IEDs in his car” and expected he’d be Muslim

[LibWhacker]

Ali will receive a maximum sentence of 10 years in state prison.

Ridiculous. He's an enemy combatant here to murder as many innocent people as possible. And we're going to slap him on the wrist? Which is what 10 years in jail is for these lunatics.

[BenLurkin]

Yup!

[BenLurkin]

Not only that, but it will be ten years spent recruiting other inmates to become “soldiers of Allah”

[E. Pluribus Unum]

This is what the gaslight presstitutes call a "Salinas man."

Is that like an "Encino man?"

Deport using IED up his Azz.

oh, and he said Judge Kavanaugh made him look at kittens being eaten by snakes. s/
